1. Start with the geographic decision, not a population assumption
Zuni Pueblo is recorded as a census-designated place in McKinley County, New Mexico. The population estimate is useful for defining the service area you want to discuss, but it cannot establish legal need, language preference, competition, online behavior or likely intake volume. Video Intake should therefore be configured around the firm’s actual service boundary and accepted matters, not a guessed conversion rate. Decide whether a visitor from Zuni Pueblo is eligible because of residence, incident location, court location, matter type or another rule your firm uses. If your firm serves places beyond Zuni Pueblo, make that distinction explicit in the intake rather than treating the CDP and the whole county as interchangeable.
Recommended approach
Use the consultation to write a plain-language service-area rule and a short eligibility path. Review how the firm identifies location, what happens when location is unclear, and whether a visitor needs a human review before the inquiry is accepted.
